Proverbs 21:30

There is no wisdom and there is no understanding, and there is no counsel against ¹  the Lord. ² 

Pr 19:21; Isa 7:5-7; Isa 8:9,10; Isa 14:27; Isa 46:10,11; Jer 9:23; Jon 1:13; Ac 4:27,28; Ac 5:39; 1Pe 2:8

¹ tn The form לְנֶגֶד (lÿneged) means “against; over against; in opposition to.” The line indicates they cannot in reality be in opposition, for human wisdom is nothing in comparison to the wisdom of God (J. H. Greenstone, Proverbs, 232).

² sn The verse uses a single sentence to state that all wisdom, understanding, and advice must be in conformity to the will of God to be successful. It states it negatively – these things cannot be in defiance of God (e.g., Job 5:12-13; Isa 40:13-14).
